Pathetic.
Himself and Januzaj can both apologise for shaming the club tonight or both can feck off in the summer.

Chill the feck up. We only have two players who can take on their defender. By these standards Young should have committed suicide long ago.
 
Totally at fault? :lol: Really? Not anything to do with Smalling and Valencia completely losing their heads,or our other defenders letting Chamberlain casually stroll between them as easy as you like. It's totally the fault of Di Maria not tracking the full back?

Yes. Basics of playing on the wing. A pub player wouldn't get away with that shit.

What's the point in taking on a defender if you're going to dive once you're past him?
When was the last time either of them taking someone on led to a goal?

You might be OK with United players diving but I'm not. I hold our players to higher standards and have no interest in watching divers in the shirt.
 
I thought overall he had a decent game, until the and sending off.

Absolutely he should have. I was laughing at the 'totally' at fault claim, considering the farcical defending from everybody that was on display in that goal. Which they also don't teach as far as I'm aware. Or maybe that's why England is so behind at grassroots level :lol:

Well yeh, if Di Maria had tracked his man they wouldn't have scored. Valencia was out of position but it was Di Maria's man who strolled past him

Nor would they have scored if any of the other defenders had done their job would they? If any one of the three players relaxing near Ox had tackled him would they have scored? Obviously not.
 
Somebody tell him please he is not playing in fecking la liga. Too easy to go down and lose his head easIly
 
Agreed, he was quite good. A bit heavy on the diving and grabbing of ref jerseys but other wise he also created our goal from next to nothing.
 
Probably his best performance in a few months up to getting sent off.
Diving in that position with the ball at your feet is stupid, no defence. Stay the feck on your feet.
That goes double for januzaj who was in an even better position.
His reaction to a deserved booking was idiotic.

On the goal ... i would have thought smalling should have stuck with him?
Not really sure on how a cb should react in that situation. Di maria isn't the kind of player to be entirely reliable in that regard.
 
I haven't been as angry with a player since Antonio Valencia decided to feck up a perfectly simple back pass to David De Gea. So not that long ago, then.

He actually played well going forward tonight, but his horrendous tracking back and stupid red card blankets that. Out for an important game against Spurs, too. Idiot.

I hate the diving. I wouldn't kick them out of the club for them though. I'd kick out the manager first, who's ruined their confidence by either playing them out of position or not playing them at all.

I get what your saying and it did look a bit calamitous, but in the first half we were staying tights and pressing hard with aggressive tackling and the only free arsenal man was Di Maria's, Angel was literally just stood still watching the game.
 
Didn't pick up monreal's run for his goal when Valencia got sucked in, also gave the ref the chance to send him off other the those two big feck ups he did ok
 
It's really hard to like him isn't it? Just as well I don't think he will be staying for long with us.
 
LVG on BBC was very honest regarding Di Maria . Guessing he was given the hairdryer.
 
Will he miss Sundays game then? Chance for Mata maybe, although the lack of pace in the side will be depressing.
 
He has been going from bad to worse over the past few months. Its like his moral is abysmal in FM and we cant do anything to improve his morale or his performances.
 
When he played for Real, I saw him as the Suarez of that league. They almost look like they could be related? He's been playing below par too long to act like a fecking diva now.

Di Maria: Man up (you don't have to change your name, just don't whine like a little bitch when the ref is spot on)
 
Yes a referee too, the fa can't expect players to respect refs when they don't respect players, never mind grabbing him, should have smacked the smug tosser

Good thing you're not a football player then, because you'd be sent off all the fecking time.

It's only 70% for the diving. It's 30% for playing shite.

Young has redeemed himself somwhat by not diving in a long time and putting in consistently good performances. Had he been sold last year I would not have shed a single tear.

If Di Maria and Januzaj aren't sold and put in several months worth of good performances, without diving, I'll get back on board.
But sod backing underperforming, overpaid and immature idiots who can't keep control of their emotions on the pitch.

Januzaj has played 46 times for Man Utd. He's been booked for diving 5 times. He probably could have seen 3 or 4 more cards in that time.
 
The guy is obviously an idiot, but he seems to be the only one that creates anything in the last few games and we have a must win game with Spurs in the weekend. We are fecked in the one that comes in for him is Falcao. :lol:
 
But does the club fine players who get suspended for doing stupid stuff ? like Di Maria today

We have Mata, maybe he'll get a game.. maybe
 
I want to see how he plays in his next few games.
It could be that this red card is the start of a resurgence - who knows?

I doubt he will be sold in the Summer - he will get next year to prove himself. Earlier in this thread, other people pointed out that there are some players who take time to settle in, as opposed to giving instant impact. Perhaps Di Maria is one of these players.

He's made a mistake today and he knows it. LvG will almost certainly give him a rollicking for it and Di Maria will accept it.
Lets move on and hope that Di Maria goes on to become the best footballer in the EPL next season.

My gut feeling is that Falcao is done at this club. Too many other players are now ahead of him.
Playing with Falcao is like playing with 10 men, and I'm sorry Falcao, but one good touch against Sunderland isnt enough to save your Man Utd career.

I think Januzaj or Mata will replace Di Maria, while he serves his suspension.
 
So how much did you value him at Real Madrid then? there are clear signs of quality in almost every player, we are talking about the best outfield player in the team
In which team? Our team? Certainly isn't playing like it. I'd say he's a 35million quid player at the most.
 
PSG? It would probably be at a loss

PSG are also looking to rebuild and get rid of the deadwood in their team, i don't think they would want him tbh, but the french ligue might suit him - we won't get more than £30m though
 
Great cross for the goal. Was his usual awful self aside from that though, with the added bonus of getting sent off.

So Mendes made us pay an extra £25m and give him our #7 shirt? back in September it seemed like we had the best transfer window ever, its looking more and more like we got ripped off and I'm not just talking about Di Maria
